Simulation of Urban MObility

Traffic simulation within SUMO uses software tools for simulation and analysis of road traffic and traffic management systems. New traffic strategies can be implemented via a simulation for analysis before they are used in real-world situations.{{cite web |url=https://spectrum.ieee.org/how-vehicletovehicle-communication-could-replace-traffic-lights-and-shorten-commutes |title=How Vehicle-to-Vehicle Communication Could Replace Traffic Lights and Shorten Commutes |website=IEEE Spectrum |date=25 Sep 2018 |first=Ozan K. |last=Tonguz}} SUMO has also been proposed as a toolchain component for the development and validation of automated driving functions via various X-in-the-Loop and digital twin approaches.{{Cite journal|url=https://saemobilus.sae.org/content/2018-01-1066/|title=Simulation-Based Identification of Critical Scenarios for Cooperative and Automated Vehicles (2018-01-1066 Journal Article)- SAE Mobilus|website=saemobilus.sae.org|date=3 April 2018 |volume=1 |issue=2 |pages=93–106 |doi=10.4271/2018-01-1066 |language=en|access-date=2020-02-03 |last1=Hallerbach |first1=Sven |last2=Xia |first2=Yiqun |last3=Eberle |first3=Ulrich |last4=Koester |first4=Frank }}{{Cite web|url=https://www.researchgate.net/publication/338528849|title=AmE - Automotive meets Electronics 2020: A simulation-based, statistical approach for the derivation of concrete scenarios for the release of highly automated driving functions|last=Weber|first=Nico|date=January 2020|website=Researchgate|access-date=2020-02-15}}

SUMO is used for research purposes like traffic forecasting, evaluation of traffic lights, route selection, or in the field of vehicular communication systems. SUMO users are able to make changes to the program source code through the open-source license to experiment with new approaches.

SUMO was used in the following national and international projects:
